Mary’s Favorite Curcumin Supplements

The below supplements mentioned in the show may not all have piperine in them (with the exception of Gaia Herbs), but have been shown to be extremely well absorbed. In fact this study just came out on Theracurmin.

Gaia – Golden Milk * It’s best heated and mixed with coconut/almond milk beverages to get the fat needed for maximum benefit.

First things first: I love chocolate. I love kale. And I consume them both regularly, but generally not at the same time (although, ask me about my chocolate banana kale smoothie!) I also love helping people find easy ways make their body, mind, and life just a bit better.
